Watershed Project Resume:
This was a resume created to exemplify my abilities to apply for a position in a project.

At the beginning of the project, I began development on a power generation system for the modules. It utilized a stepper motor and turbine to generate power directly from the stream. Things were going well, problems being solved and such, until we visited the watershed. The stream was way slower than expected, making concealed power generation nearly impossible. Later on, I continued to help with power systems, searching for suitable power sources to last 6 months. This included looking into alternate power generation sources as well as investing in fixed lifetime batteries. This eventually came to a software change which forced the Arduino into a sleep mode of 59 minutes of every hour. With this aside, I focused on other non-box-development activities, such as doing graphic design for our measurement and website team, and teaching a group member how to use one of our Arduino boards (setup, coding, wiring, etc.).
This was by far, the most content-rich project I’ve been involved with. The months of prelude to this exhibition just goes to show the massive amount of data and research that was put into the project. My small corners I was responsible for maintaining were the Dissolved Oxygen research team and the Measurement Development team, while two of dozens, the depth of the traits, research, data, etc, were quite complex, and throwing in the fact it is one of dozens goes to prove the immense nature of the project. As a result, the respective exhibition night was one of greatest I’ve done. As far as my own input to my groups, their respective products and etc, I feel that I’ve done well in this project to apply myself to one of the many products I was involved in. I think I could’ve done better in the planning department, as when I found the water mill system was defunct, I drifted around, going outside my team, and pursuing non-essential topics in a time of desperation. Altogether, I think the end result, presentation and project, came together very well and the team I worked in was nothing but excellent.
